The edge channels of the quantum Hall effect provide one dimensional chiral and ballistic
wires along which electrons can be guided in an optics‐like setup. Electronic propagation …

The progress of charge manipulation in semiconductor-based nanoscale devices opened
up a novel route to realise a flying qubit with a single electron. In the present review, we …

The on-demand generation of pure quantum excitations is important for the operation of
quantum systems, but it is particularly difficult for a system of fermions. This is because any …

We investigate in detail the behavior of the bipartite fluctuations of particle number N ̂ and
spin S ̂ z in many-body quantum systems, focusing on systems where such U (1) charges …

The aim of this book is to introduce the basic elements of the scattering matrix approach to
transport phenomena in dynamical quantum systems of non-interacting electrons. This …

We have realized a quantum optics like Hanbury Brown–Twiss (HBT) experiment by
partitioning, on an electronic beam splitter, single elementary electronic excitations …

We study the injection n of electrons in a quantum conductor using voltage pulses applied
on a contact. We particularly consider the case of Lorentzian voltage pulses. When carrying …

In analogy with quantum optics, short-time correlations of the current fluctuations are
measured and used to assess the quality of the single-particle emission of a recently …

We propose a quantum tomography protocol to measure single-electron coherence in
quantum Hall edge channels, and therefore access for the first time the wavefunction of …

The controlled and accurate emission of coherent electronic wave packets is of prime
importance for future applications of nanoscale electronics. Here, we present a theoretical …
